Maker Club

   In case you missed the previous two meetings, we have been working on a Rube Goldberg Machine in the SmartLab. Its goal is to turn off the lights. We are going to finish this machine at the August meeting, on the 4th Saturday of the month (8/25). If you would like to help, come to the SmartLab on that day at 12:30PM. In July, we created the beginning and end of the machine and connected them to create a small Rube Goldberg Machine. This meeting will focus on expanding the middle of the machine to make it more eventful. Neither of us has a video of last meeting's system working, but if you were at the July meeting and have such a video, please notify us in a comment.

For those of you who couldn't be there in person, here is how the post-it note art turned out:

Here are the proposals we worked on (feel free to edit using suggestions or send me your email so I can give you editing permissions. I turned off editing to prevent people from messing with the documents): Proposal for Redesign of Post-it Note Art: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N4kKVBtRZdL1XbIhvKmhp7lrev_aRiZ21KtM6lCNBW4/edit?usp=sharing Proposal for Rube Goldberg Machine: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VBJVXdS31j0RDjh1TIoPHvbNZhQNx6BvxAK29r3Z1_k/edit?usp=sharing Proposal for Scavenger Hunt: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GMz91jtZbBDrYxi8aQibrHH2KYNbl8htcQckvMzXQCM/edit?usp=sharing The following is the document containing suggestions for Scavenger Hunt Tasks: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o7k_3cstu8Xo74u0SCQu2_LHYEwzJTDBuQhecKXUXU0/edit?usp=sharing Here are the slides we used for the meeting: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1-fIok9HW9N6qwN6YwUwXlyXXCAaIr3-rRi69qSLriNo/edit?usp=sharing

For those of you who missed today's meeting: (there are 7 images)

The wait is finally coming to an end! In a couple of day we will finally build our first project! The final designs are located here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ewxBJzz_bBtQ5Zqd7xfJewOkrZB8S5C6fxBNrqfvWPE/edit

We will be meeting on February 24th from 12:00-4:30 in the cafe to build the post-it note art. We will be building a Mario on the large window with Mario power ups on the smaller windows to the left of it. We are in the process of finalizing the designs and will up them up in another post when they are finished.
